"Don't be angry, dear. I'm just talking." Another morning, after breakfast, Arthur went to work, while Norma stayed at home. She was determined to try that magical button. If it really worked, why go to work? If it didn't, at most she'd be late and lose three dollars in salary. Norma opened the box, took out the key from…

"Even if it feels pain, it won't stop licking the blood," Jack said, giving an example. "It's just like some greedy and unrighteous people in the world. They don't care about life and death for small gains and may even lose their own lives." At this time, the wolf was no longer licking rabbit blood but its own blood.
